*UPDATED* Aspiring Bakers #16: Fun with Fondant! (February 2012)



Dear aspiring bakers,

I am so honoured to be given the chance by SSB to host this month's Aspiring Bakers event. 

The theme for this month is ‘Fun with Fondant!’

Many people bake cakes, cupcakes and cookies. But have you ever tried to decorate them? 

Give decorating a try this month by decorating your bakes with fondant or gumpaste! 

Who can join?
Everyone! (if you do not have a blog, just send me a photo and recipe of your creation)

How to join?
Step 1 :
Decorate any whole cakes, cupcakes or cookies with fondant icing or gumpaste in the month of February 2012.
Homemade or store bought fondant icing or gumpaste can be used.

Step 2 :
Post it on your blog between 1 February 2012 and 6 March 2012.
Your post can include the recipe for your cakes, cupcakes or cookies or link to the original recipe. If you are using a recipe from a book, please include the title of the book too.
*Any entries that are posted outside the date range will not be accepted. 


**Updated: To encourage members to play around with fondant this month, we also accept entries that do not come with any cake/cupcake/cookie recipes. As long as there is an attempt to make and decorate with fondant, we will accept it. (This exception is only for fondant theme this month only).

Step 3 :
Please mention that you are submitting your post to Aspiring Bakers #16: Fun with Fondant! (February 2012) hosted by Yvonne of iceamericanos and provide a link back to this post HERE.
*Entries will not be accepted if the above is not included.

URL of your photo (one photo for each entry):
(alternatively, you can attach your photo in your email, preferably less than 500kb).

Please use "Aspiring Bakers #16" as your email subject. You may submit more than 1 entry.

The roundup will be posted on 01 March 2012.

As a token of appreciation to you, I will be giving away a set of 'Double Happiness Dragon Phoenix' Cutter to one lucky baker. The lucky one will be chosen by random.org based on the order of submission.
